THE ALIENATED MANOR: A COMEDY.
CHARVILLE (as before).
MRS. CHARVILLE.
CHARVILLE.
O you cannot possibly divine. (Turning to Crafton.) Sir, let the business be settled as soon as you please. You shall have it at the price which you formerly offered.
SIR LEVEL (pulling him aside as before).
CHARVILLE (turning to Crafton).
MRS. CHARVILLE (going up coaxingly to Crafton as he is about to reply to Charville).
Nay nay, my dear Sir; you must not tempt him: come to my dressing room, and let Mary and I have a few words with you. You must positively say nothing more to Mr. Charville on this business to-day. It is too bright, too pleasant a day for such ungracious dealings. Come with me, my dear Sir. You must not—you can't refuse me.
